Saturday Night Live pokes fun at iPhone 5 complainers

The tech world has been ablaze with complaints relating to the iPhone 5 lately. Everything from Apple maps to scratched phones straight out of the box. Are we making a big deal out of nothing? Saturday Night Live seems to think so.

The folks over at Saturday Night Live aired the skit above poking fun at the editors of various large tech sites and their complaints over the iPhone 5. Enter the mock Chinese workers who listen to their complaints and have a few choice words of their own. Whether or not you think the complaints against the iPhone 5 are warranted, it's a good laugh.

That's OK. Usually us Canadians are expected to wait for the products too. Remember when the iPhones would launch a year or so later in Canada. Heck even the Kindle Paperlight is available pretty much everywhere in the modern world except Canada. They're paying us back for Nortel.

Um, actually, yeah, I don't mind a scratch in my car. Probably because obviously even a new car gets test driven which even if it doesn't have a scratch, is it already in wear condition regardless. And the scratch of the car isn't important to me, it's the inside. And isn't a car a poor analogy to begin with?? Why compare a $200-$400 product to something that cost $10K+.

No, I don't care about my phone getting a scratch out of the box because I have better things to worry about. I also acknowledge the fact that my phone was also made by someone who unfortunately maybe never have the privilege of owning such device. I appreciate having the privilege of owning an iPhone so the least I could do is not complain about an out of box defect. Especially one that doesn't even affect operation.

BTW, before anybody pulls out the "fanboy" card, I am in no way defending a company that could care less about any of our opinions. I just find it unbelievable to complain about a replacable materialistic object, regardless of price tag.

I think that pretty much says it all. I love my iPhone 5. I find that it's a significant improvement over the 4S and a step in the right direction for a phone that long ago became my mobile computer. I would happily accept a few scratches on the metal plate if it means that my device is lighter. How exactly do minor scratches on the aluminum affect functionality of the device? Anyone?

Hahahahaha...that was hilarious!!! "Hmmmm, what products does America make? Does Diabetes count as a product....then let me get back to you on that 1". I can't stop laughing...I'm so weak!

While I do feel some complaints people are having are legit, I believe many people just complain to hear themselves speak. I haven't had any issues with my device but if I did I wouldn't be whining about it. Get it replaced or fixed & keep it moving...it's just a phone!!!

BTW: I do find this video sad at the same time because Americans complain about the dumbest things...It's absolutely ridiculous!! Be grateful you have the means to live the way you do & stop complaining all the time, GEEZ

My wife has the iPhone 5 and somehow I don't get SNL having the maps complaint to the builders of the phone? It is a software not hardware problem. Yeah I know the SNL piece was humor and satire, just saying. It was funny though, especially the bugs part.
